Same as yesterday.
Today a the was also made of 14 riders, interestingly Rujano being one of them.
However they got caught quickly because of the high pace from Omega - Pharma and Greenedge.
In the peleton lots of splits happened and they were suddenly down to 59. The high pace combined with teh sidewind caused a situation like this in our team.
Anyway, let's see what happened: Oss started to sprint very early with Marcato on his wheel and they got a decent advantage on the peleton.
And Oss takes stage 3 in Qatar. He surprised the others with his long sprint, but it worked out very well! He also takes the points jersey! SpiderTech - Cervélo gets a 4-5-6-10.
| 1 | Daniel Oss | Liquigas - Cannondale | 3h00'15 | | 2 | Daniele Callegarin | Team Type 1 - Sanofi | s.t. | | 3 | Marco Marcato | Vacansoleil - DCM Pro Cycling Team | s.t. | | 4 | Mike Pye | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. | | 5 | Kevin Lépard | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. | | 6 | Jack Wiles | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. | | 7 | Luca Ascani | Farnese Vini - Selle Italia | s.t. | | 8 | Gerald Ciolek | Omega Pharma - Quick Step Cycling Team | s.t. | | 9 | Gatis Smukulis | Katusha Team | s.t. | | 10 | Tommeke van de Kuijt | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. |
| 1 | Fabian Cancellara | RadioShack - Nissan | 6h14'04 | | 2 | Tyler Farrar | Team Garmin - Sharp | + 12 | | 3 | Jack Wiles | SpiderTech - Cervélo | + 16 | | 4 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky Pro Cycling | + 18 | | 5 | Daniel Oss | Liquigas - Cannondale | + 19 | | 6 | Kevin Lépard | SpiderTech - Cervélo | + 22 | | 7 | Tom Boonen | Omega Pharma - Quick Step Cycling Team | + 27 | | 8 | Jens Mouris | Orica- Greenedge | + 28 | | 9 | Filippo Pozzato | Farnese Vini - Selle Italia | + 31 | | 10 | Martin Elmiger | Ag2r La Mondiale | s.t. |
| 1 | Daniel Oss | Liquigas - Cannondale | | 39 | | 2 | Jack Wiles | SpiderTech - Cervélo | | 35 | | 3 | Kevin Lépard | SpiderTech - Cervélo | | 32 | | 4 | Mike Pye | SpiderTech - Cervélo | | 26 | | 5 | Fabian Cancellara | RadioShack - Nissan | | 25 |
Mike Pye - 1 He beat our sprinters, and got a nice 4th

Just take a look at the other Qatar stages. Mass sprint.
All the Qatar stages seem to be the same. Break, chase, wind, mass - sprint. This stage followed also the rule, and a break got formed.
Greenedge chased down the break, as always. Spoiler Interesting fact: Greenedge chased every break down so far, but the only got 1 stage - win out of 9 possibilities. Failure?
The sprint preparations started, and we formed our train. Liquigas was pulling the front hard, and tried to make a train for Sagan. Tom Boonen was on Wiles's wheel looked to be perfectly positioned.
At the 3km mark, Pye started to sprint bringing us to the front, and then Lépard took over.
Lépard didn't have the legs today, and had to let Wiles go early. That wasn't ideal, but we had to live with it. Wiles started to sprint, and Bennati caught his wheel along with Guardini. Bennati made his jump, and Guardini fell behind. Can Bennati or Paolini from the otherside outsprint Wiles?
Yes, Bennati can! The italian takes the victory after a powerful finish. Wiles come 2nd and Paolini is the 3rd.
| 1 | Daniele Bennati | RadioShack - Nissan | 3h18'25 | | 2 | Jack Wiles | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. | | 3 | Luca Paolini | Katusha Team | s.t. | | 4 | Romain Feillu | Vacansoleil - DCM Pro Cycling Team | s.t. | | 5 | Andrea Guardini | Farnese Vini - Selle Italia | s.t. | | 6 | Juan José Haedo | Team Saxo Bank - Tinkoff Bank | s.t. | | 7 | Kevin Lépard | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. | | 8 | Eduard Vorganov | Katusha Team | s.t. | | 9 | Alexander Kristoff | Katusha Team | s.t. | | 10 | Robert Förster | UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling | s.t. |
| 1 | Fabian Cancellara | RadioShack - Nissan | 9h32'29 | | 2 | Jack Wiles | SpiderTech - Cervélo | + 4 | | 3 | Tyler Farrar | Team Garmin - Sharp | + 12 | | 4 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky Pro Cycling | + 18 | | 5 | Daniel Oss | Liquigas - Cannondale | + 19 | | 6 | Kevin Lépard | SpiderTech - Cervélo | + 22 | | 7 | Tom Boonen | Omega Pharma - Quick Step Cycling Team | + 27 | | 8 | Jens Mouris | Orica- Greenedge | + 28 | | 9 | Filippo Pozzato | Farnese Vini - Selle Italia | + 31 | | 10 | Martin Elmiger | Ag2r La Mondiale | s.t. |

Tommeke van de Kuijt - 1 incredible effort to pull the train to the front |

Nice work with this. Maybe shaking the hoodoo of 'your rider' stories.
One thing, I can't read the writing in yellow.

These pan-flat stages are starting to get boring.
Every day a same routine. The break gets formed. It's a little smaller than in the former days, and get's a lead around 7,00.
This time we help RSNT in the pacemaking, and get the break back pretty quickly.
The race goes pretty slowly, as everyone waits for the sprint. We make our usual train, and wait for the others to do something.
At the 3km mark, Pye gets really good position and pulls us strongly.
At 2kms Lépard takes over and Wiles is in really good position, only Feillu is close with Paolini.
And now Wiles is off, he drags Feillu with him, but he is unquestionably faster.
Can Wiles take it or Feillu will snatch it? Paolini is not a good enough sprinter to do it possibly.
And the norwegian takes it! What an impressive performance by him! Feillu gets close with a 2nd, but realistically he didn't have a chance.
| 1 | Jack Wiles | SpiderTech - Cervélo | 3h27'20 | | 2 | Romain Feillu | Vacansoleil - DCM Pro Cycling Team | s.t. | | 3 | Luca Paolini | Katusha Team | s.t. | | 4 | Kevin Lépard | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. | | 5 | Mike Pye | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. | | 6 | Daniele Bennati | RadioShack - Nissan | s.t. | | 7 | Ben Swift | Sky Pro Cycling | s.t. | | 8 | Andrea Guardini | Farnese Vini - Selle Italia | s.t. | | 9 | Koldo Fernandez | Team Garmin - Sharp | s.t. | | 10 | Robert Hunter | Team Garmin - Sharp | s.t. |
In the GC, Jack Wiles takes over the yellow.
| 1 | Jack Wiles | SpiderTech - Cervélo | 12h59'33 | | 2 | Fabian Cancellara | RadioShack - Nissan | + 16 | | 3 | Tyler Farrar | Team Garmin - Sharp | + 28 | | 4 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky Pro Cycling | + 34 | | 5 | Daniel Oss | Liquigas - Cannondale | + 35 | | 6 | Kevin Lépard | SpiderTech - Cervélo | + 38 | | 7 | Tom Boonen | Omega Pharma - Quick Step Cycling Team | + 43 | | 8 | Jens Mouris | Orica- Greenedge | + 44 | | 9 | Filippo Pozzato | Farnese Vini - Selle Italia | + 47 | | 10 | Martin Elmiger | Ag2r La Mondiale | s.t. |
| 1 | Jack Wiles | SpiderTech - Cervélo | 25 | 80 | | 2 | Kevin Lépard | SpiderTech - Cervélo | 14 | 55 | | 3 | Daniel Oss | Liquigas - Cannondale | 0 | 39 | | 4 | Mike Pye | SpiderTech - Cervélo | 12 | 38 | | 5 | Daniele Bennati | RadioShack - Nissan | 10 | 35 |
Jack Wiles - 1 a really powerful sprint
Mike Pye - 1 "The Undropable" leads us to victory
Kevin Lépard - 1 great leadout |

There won't be too many updates more, as I'm updating my DB's stats to the new PCMDAily DB's. Not the story's DB, so the changes won't be in there.
EDIT: Today
